GTA 6 is going to have the biggest map possible in the history of Rockstar Games’ open-world series. Various reports have already claimed that the scale of a more realistic Vice City will be massive in terms of scale. With that said, a lot of hardcore GTA fans will be eager to receive a special perk from the devs – as part of a long-running tradition – when the game eventually comes out.

From Red Dead Redemption to GTA, every title from Rockstar Games has offered this bonus gift to the players; a physical map. Of course, this is for players who own physical copies. Although most of the things are going digital these days, it will be amazing to have this ‘bonus perk’ alongside GTA 6’s awaited physical edition.

How about a real, physical GTA 6 map?

This is something every GTA has had (even RDR2 had come out with a physical map in 2018) with a physical edition. It will surely be a nice idea to have a city guide in the form of something players can take a look at very closely whenever they want to. Plus, the physical map will also make nostalgic fans happy who have admired this pattern of Rockstar Games.

Given the fact that GTA 6 will have the biggest map yet from the studio, it will be a shame if it ends up having no unfolding map with the physical edition. If one has to make an assumption, Rockstar Games will deliver a map guide. However, players will have to wait till 2025 to find out.
